Fri, 23 Sep 2011 19:49:25 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=87551#comment-197832Indians fans still appreciate Chad Ogea for his performance in the 1997 World Series vs. the Marlins. He was 2-0 with a 1.54 ERA in his two starts. He also went 2 for 4 with a run, double, and 2 RBIs. If Mesa hadn’t blown the save in Game 7, Chad Ogea would have been the World Series MVP.

I’ll be there tonight, Craig…I’ll tweet at you from the game.

This is from a Phillies fan. Often times I have a severe case of fateagles. There are two sports seasons, baseball season and the off season.

Fri, 23 Sep 2011 16:53:34 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=87551#comment-197661Chad Ogea averaged just a bit under a Win Above Replacement during his Indians career. Sandy Alomar Jr. averaged just a bit over a Win Above Replacement during his Indians career. Paul Sorrento averaged just a bit over a Win Above Replacement during his Indians career.

Baerga is the one who doesn’t belong, averaging over 2 WAR per year during his Indians career.

I realize that the comment may have been a slam against Ogea, but I don’t think that’s accurate.

Fri, 23 Sep 2011 16:34:08 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=87551#comment-197647I would really like to be there tonight, and to convince Craig to but me a beer with the big NBC dollars we know he’s pocketing (now that they no longer have to pay the brilliant cast and writers of “Outsourced”). Sadly, I don’t live in Ohio.

Craig, steal an extra poster for me.
